Description
⚠️ This issue respects the following points: ⚠️
- I agree to follow Nextcloud's Code of Conduct.
Describe the goal you'd like to achieve
As a poll participant, I want to be able to indicate my preference of certain options over others, because a static yes/no answer is not always good enough.
Ideally, this would just be a list of all the available options, draggable by the user.
Describe possible solutions
Allow people to rank every choice in a poll from 1-n (where n is either the number of options or an option < number of options), to show how much they agree with a certain option.
Additional context
I regularly host a movie night, where people can vote on genre (through strawpoll for now). Since it is pretty difficult to pick one genre of movie you prefer over all the others, it would be much nicer to use a ranked choice poll for this.

No files or tests are named. Start by tracing the existing poll participant flow, option handling, and result display in the Nextcloud Polls app. Done should mean participants can rank all or selected options, rankings are stored and presented consistently, and the behavior is covered by appropriate tests.
